Design Team

Hi
everyone, first and foremost I am super excited to begin this journey
of creating my own challenge blog, I'm thrilled you are
here visiting. I sure hope you will become a follower and join us each
week as we share inspiration, to enrich our creative minds. I am so
thrilled and honored to have some very talented ladies join me on this
adventure! Be prepared to be WOW'd each week as they each share
their incredible creative talent!A
bit about me!! I am an addict!! Yes I admit I have a serious addiction!
My addiction ranges from pretty design papers to beautiful ribbon, fun
and exciting tools, to my beloved Copic – not sure I have found something I don’t like (well okay me and a hot glue gun just don’t
get along). I tell you it’s a passion and obsession! That I {heart}! I am married to a wonderful man who puts up with my addiction (not that
he has a choice) and we are blessed to be raising one of our
grandchildren Hunter who is 13 years old and definitely keeps us young
and active. We have 4 full grown children (Nicole, Jenn, Josh and
Amanda) and 8 beautiful grandchildren – being blessed with our first 2
little girls a Year Ago.

Hello!
My name is Chris & I was thrilled to be asked to be on the Love to
Create Design Team!! What fun it will be starting a new challenge
blog!!!! I have been scrapbooking for about 12 years, stamping for
about 5 years, and started blogging over 2 years ago. You can find my
blog at http://cattsscratchingpost.blogspot.com/. I hope you’ll stop by and visit some time!! I have met so many
incredible people through the blogging & stamping world, and from
all over the world (even places I didn't know existed!!). I am having the time of my life!!! I am a Catholic school teacher in Canada, and
spend my spare time in my craft room, camping, or with my little
family. My DH (Tim) and I don’t have any human children but we do have
furry 4-legged ones that keep us as busy as if they had only 2 legs! All of our animals are rescues so they each come with their own
issues: Brick, is our neurotic 70 lb. lap dog; Minty, our newest
addition, is a wild and crazy puppy; Tux, our 14 year old diabetic cat,
and our 3 leopard geckos. I am so excited to share my love
of stamping and digis with you!!!

My name is Kitty, born in 1970 and live with my partner and son in a historic town in The Netherlands. In 2001 I started scrapbooking, but diagnosed with postpartum illness I stopped making layouts gradually and just made some small projects for our garden. 3 years ago I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and my rheumatism consultant told me to do something that gives me positive energy and what makes me happy. That's when I decided to take up card making again and I discovered stamping and digital images. Thankful and proud for being part of a very talented DT. Hope to create a lot of fun stuff with the images and I hope to inspire people with my work. Hugs, Kitty

Hello! My name is Mei and I started card-making about 2 years ago and
let me tell you, I've been hooked ever since! I love trying different
techniques, stamping, embossing, die cuts, letterpress...you name it!
When it comes to craft supplies, I'm a bit of a hoarder and my boyfriend
has since given up his office for me to use as my craft room :) Guilty! I
am so happy for the opportunity to be a part of the Love to Create
design team and the things I'm going to learn from this experience. I'm
excited to share my work and I can't wait to see everyone's creations! Sending love from Canada!

My name is Sandra Janssen, 27 years old and married to the love of my life. We have a daughter and live in The Netherlands. I have been crafting as long as I can remember. As a child I started crafting with my grandmother, and we made 3-D-paperpieced cards. She also tried to teach me how to crochet and knit, but since I am left handed and she is right handed, it didn't quite work out. About 8 years ago, I found out about scrapbooking and did that for a very long time, but it bothered me that I couldn't finish a lay-out in 1 evening. It usually took me about 2 or 3, and I began searching for things I could do in just 1 evening. On the internet I saw people creating the most beautiful cards with the same materials I used for scrapbooking. A new addiction was born, I managed to make 2 cards in one evening! I have been coloring with Copics for about 2 years now, and I totally love it. For me, it doesn't matter whether they are rubber stamps, clear stamps or dig stamps, I love them all!

A Little About Me: I'm an energetic, outgoing Stay at Home Mommy of three active Kiddos. My DD Lizzy is seven, DS Jimmy is almost 6, DS Tommy just turned 1, and DS Baby #4 is on the way. I've been married to my Disabled Veteran Hubby, Eric, for eight years. We live on 2 acres in the country in Marlboro Township, Ohio. Crafting became a passion of mine while my hubby was in Iraq 11 years ago, as it was something to do to pass the time. I started my blog Crafty and Green in 2011 and it has been an amazing journey. I had to take a break from crafting at the end of 2013 until recently, but I'm super excited to be back. I was originally the co-owner of Love to Create Challenge and helped Jackie get the Challenge Blog and Design Team off the Ground in 2012. It was so much fun, and I really have missed it and all of you! I have been on numerous other Design Teams throughout the past few years and one day would LOVE to be more involved again. Until Then, I will take it one card/project at a time!! As Always My friends, Craft Green to $ave Green!!
